A friend of mine emailed me today asking if I might be able to help her out in a situation. She's in a lease in a property in the Kenmore area and needs to move - quickly - but the lease has a provision saying that she's responsible for the full rent unless she assists in finding a new tenant. She's in her final year of medical school and hasn't the first clue about how to find a renter, having only been one herself for many years.
Anyhooo... here's where I step in. Might be a great opportunity for someone who needs shorter term rental than a year but wants more time to get to know the area (can you say "relocation?") before purchasing.
Details of the property that she's given me so far are below. I've asked her to forward some photos when she can as well. Rent is $1000 a month.
The place is in Kenmore at 6150 NE 184th St. zip is 98028
It is a MIL apt above a garage/studio apt. 2 bd, 2 ba, w/d, hardwood floors, skylight in the kitchen, new windows and screens. there is a small patio in back, I landscaped a little and there is potential to do more if someone is interested. It's a nice space, good amount of light, quiet. The landlords are actually pretty nice and laid back. They even let us use their wireless internet for free.
